Ok, for those who think Simplified Chess takes too much out, consider Skirmish56 Chess:
http://www.chessvariants.org/index/msdisplay.php?itemid=MSskirmish56ches

This is normal chess, outside of the pawns moving only one space forward (no initial double move).  Checkmate, regular pawn promotion, and castling are back in.  Maybe this is what Skirmish Chess actually needed to greater interest.
